Psalms 87

1 The city that Yahweh established is on his sacred hill.

Nabangon ti siudad ti Apo iti rabaw dagiti nasantoan a banbantay.

2 He loves that city, Jerusalem, more than he loves any other city in Israel.

Ad-adda nga ay-ayaten ni Yahweh dagiti ruangan ti Sion ngem dagiti amin a tolda ni Jacob.

3 [You people in] [APO] the city that God (owns/lives in), people say wonderful things about your city.

Nadayag a banbanag dagiti naibaga a maipapan kenka, a siudad ti Dios. (Selah)

4 [Some of those who know about God are the people of] Egypt and Babylonia, and also [the people of] Philistia and Tyre and Ethiopia; [some day they all] will say, “[Although I was not born in Jerusalem], [because I belong to Yahweh, it is as though] I was born there.”

Dakamatek ti Rahab ken Babilonia kadagiti pasurotko. Kitaenyo, adda ti Filistia, ken Tiro, a kaduada ti Etiopia. Naipasngay daytoy sadiay.

5 And concerning Jerusalem, people will say [“It is as though] everyone was born there, and Almighty God will cause that city to remain strong/safe/secure.”

Maibaganto iti Sion, “Naipasngay ti tunggal maysa kadagitoy kenkuana; ken ti mismo a Kangangatoan ti mangipasdek kenkuana.”

6 Yahweh will write a list of [the names of] the people of various groups [who belong to him], and he will say that [he considers them] all to be citizens of Jerusalem.

Isurat ni Yahweh kabayatan ti panaglislistana kadagiti tattao, “Naipasngay daytoy sadiay.” (Selah)

7 They will all dance and sing, saying, “Jerusalem is the source of all our blessings.”

Isu nga ibaga met dagiti kumakanta ken sumasala nga, “Adda kenka dagiti amin nga ubbogko.”
